The Davis Schools Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with no paid employees. They have supported Grad Night and run charity golf tournaments. In the spring of 2008 as the Davis Joint Unified School District was suffering the dual impacts of state funding cuts and internal financial mismanagement the Davis Schools Foundation began a program of asking parents to contribute $1 per day ($365/yr) to support programs that would otherwise be cut.
Local teacher Cliff Dimond has written an open letter that is a plea for assistance.

A more plausible explanation is that the DJUSD planned for growth in Davis that did not happen. That accounts for the decline in enrollment for the district (contributed about $1 million to the deficit), and some of the "one-time expenditures" and the eventual closing of Valley Oak. —HiramJackson
